Of course, they weren't going out and fighting monsters or having adventures, at least not frequently! Some of them started out with no spells, and learned some in the course of play; some of them had from 1 to 4 points in spells at start. My players seemed to enjoy the campaign!

Well, sure ... people can have fun campaigns at pretty much any point level. A lot of my wife's private sessions involve her being a happy housefrau in a gypsy camp (her husband slumming as a blacksmith there), or managing her modest country estate. Alright, the character's north of 750 pts, after 21 years of play, but she could do that at a tenth the point level.

I just figure the OP's group wouldn't care for a style where the resolution to the session's action is to find a good job for a young buddy of the PC's son, so that he can offer marriage to his sweetie, so she doesn't get married off to some rich fellow ...
